Four Thompson residents were arrested Friday in connection with two separate drug busts, state police said.

Members of the Troop-D Quality of Life Task Force, the Statewide Narcotics Task Force and the Hartford Field Office of the Drug Enforcement Agency executed multiple narcotics related search-and-seizure warrants Friday in response to numerous complaints to police about increased heroin sales in the Thompson area.

During a search at 150 Church St. investigators found scales, packing equipment, $400 in cash and about 70 folds of heroin packed for sale.

As a result, David Hetu, 22 and Christine Gareau, 28, both of 150 Church St., each were charged with possession of heroin, possession of heroin with intent to sell and operating a drug factory.

They were held on a $50,000 bond for an appearance Monday in Danielson Superior Court.

During the second search and seizure, at 24 Murolo Road, police found scales, packaging equipment and approximately 20 folds of heroin.

There were also two children younger than 3 in the house. The Department of Child and Family was contacted and responded to the scene.

As a result of the search, Corey Deary, 26, and Elizabeth Perry, 24, both of 24 Murolo Road, each were charged with possession of heroin, possession of heroin with intent to sell, operation a drug factory and risk of injury to a minor. Deary also was charged with interfering with a police officer.

Deary was held on a $50,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court Monday. Perry was held on a $25,000 non-surety bond and is scheduled to appear in court Sept. 30.
